- Comment on PlayStation 1 emulator DuckStation changes license for no commercial use and no derivatives 3 months ago:
… certain parties violating the old license, by not attributing and stripping my copyright. Packagers being collateral damage was a beneficial side-effect, considering they don’t clearly mark their versions as modified (also a GPL requirement), break functionality, and expect upstream to provide support.
Emphasis mine, snipped from the authors comment
As a maintainer of few AUR packages this is always so hurtful.
Where does this position come from? Packaging is the avenue that people using any linux distro use to get your software. This also my first time hearing that packages (re)building GPL code have to mark the packages as modified in some way. I can understand that being a valid concern (if it is one) but that’s a problem that can be rather easily fixed without throwing all of the maintainers overboard (?). I can see there being bad maintainers that will come shouting to upstream with every little thing that does not work on their platform, but man that’s just insincere towards maintainers that will dive, analyze and help where they can to make it work.
For every one maintainer coming to your github issues with their problems there is probably shitton of patches and overal time spent on making your program work with the given distro. - Comment on Stellaris: Cosmic Storms and the free 3.13 'Vela' update out now 3 months ago:
Instead of giving access to Crystal Mines, Gas Extraction Wells, and Mote Harvesting Traps they now increase the number of mining districts available on the planet and, after researching the technology to extract the relevant resource, add a small amount of resource production to miners on that planet.
Oh finally, managing where and if you had the special resources was uselessly tedious.
- Comment on Risk of Rain creators Hopoo Games join Valve 3 months ago:
While Hopoo Games are the original team behind Risk of Rain, Gearbox under Embracer took over the IP back in 2022 so the series will continue on without them.
No, by all means it’s dead
- Comment on Valve bans keyboard automation in Counter-Strike 2 update 4 months ago:
Definitely the first one, after each record they showed that their kb macro app had no SOCD enabled and that the cs2 binds were not modified. Will try to find the video but youtube is as usual, really unhelpful.

Just saw a guy speedrunning getting kicked for just (spamming) ad strafing. Lot’s of false positives.

Reminds me of zty.pe but that controller support sure is unique.
- Comment on Stellaris director insists “ethical use of AI is very important to us” after generating voices in latest DLC 7 months ago:
The reddit post this article is basically just paraphrasing:
- Comment on Sins Of A Solar Empire 2 will release on Steam this summer 7 months ago:
After having to go through the “what DLC am I missing to play with X thing in Stellaris” again lately (and not buying a single thing, leaving Steam annoyed with PDX) I am pretty in interested what they will come up with.
